It might well be a bargaining chip in leading the Kentucky legislature to allowing racetrack casinos.

Unfair advantage and all that.

I'll be glad when they extend that big road up Spring Street Hill through the neighborhood and convert it to one-way so we can connect with the interstate. It "really is a major artery" after all.

Tolls on eastern and downtown bridges are going to divert a lot of traffic to the area. Cutting that road off prematurely isn't just a matter of convenience for a handful of residents but a safety "risk" we can't afford not to address.
